Epic (stylized as epic) is an upcoming 2013 American 3D computer animated fantasy-adventure drama film based on William Joyce's children book The Leaf Men and the Brave Good Bugs. It is being produced by Blue Sky Studios, and directed by Chris Wedge, the director of Ice Age (2002) and Robots (2005). It stars the voices of Amanda Seyfried, Colin Farrell, Josh Hutcherson, Christoph Waltz, Aziz Ansari, Chris O'Dowd, Pitbull, Jason Sudeikis, with Steven Tyler and Beyoncé Knowles. Epic film is scheduled to be released on May 24, 2013.

The film is described as a "battle deep in the forest between the forces of good and evil." It tells the story of a teenage girl who finds herself in a secret world.

Story: In 2006, it was reported that Chris Wedge would be directing an animated feature film based on William Joyce's book, The Leaf Men and the Brave Good Bugs for Fox Animation. Joyce, who had already collaborated with Wedge as a designer and producer on the 2005 film Robots, was set to produce the film. At one point, Wedge got permission to find a new home for the film and turned to Pixar, led by John Lasseter, whom Wedge knew from working on Tron. When Pixar tried to close the rights for the film and start development, Fox changed their mind, and the film returned back to Fox. The film was officially greenlit in 2009, under the title Leaf Men. In May 2012, Fox announced the official title for the film, its first cast details, and a plot.
